Ella Wheeler Wilcox writes as an experienced woman to the young people of her acquaintance. She gently refuses a student who has fallen in love with her, and counsels girls and young men on courtship, marriage, ambition, jealousy, money and the double standard, even attacking the unfaithful husbands who sat in Congress.

A period piece of advice literature by the poet of Solitude, its frankness more modern than its manners. Download the free EPUB.
